‘Notions are Oceans’ is a constellation of almost anatomically correct, hand-embroidered, human organs. The organs are connected by embroidered blood vessels, some of which run into each other and some of which end up in steam beant wood structures - all enveloped by a deep, rich blue colour. A rhythmic inhalation and exhalation sound that rises and subsides flows from loudspeakers in the space, embedding the embroideries in an ocean of inner life.
